My wife has an 02 Liberty that she loves. Been problem free through 73,000 miles except for the blower control.This is a 4 position switch that only the fourth position works on. Does anyone know if this sounds like a switch, or is it something more complicated? If it is a switch, I can probably change it, if not probably a trip to the dreaded dealer. Thanks

I'm not sure if it was on this board or the Wrangler board but I just read someone stating they had the same problem. Turned out to be a resistor in the circuit used by the first three settings. The highest setting bypasses the resistor in the circuit which provides the full fan speed. Good luck.

I discovered a blower relay in the box under the hood just ahead of the battery. When removing it, it also killed the #4 blower operation, so I'm on the right track. Can anyone tell if by replacing that relay will solve the problem, or do I have to keep searching to find the resistor associated with the lower speed blower operation. By the way, the system is developed by Johnsons Control who seem to be favored by Chrysler.

I sure don't want you digging into your dashboard on this so please check it out before following my guess...Just something to consider, though...

I remember working on my old '88 Chevy Beretta for a dashboard light problem and was interested to see the back of the blower fan control switch had different-sized resistors across the contacts on the back of the switch. Is it possible that's where the blower fan control resistors are located?

I sure wish I could remember where I read that about a resistor controlling positions 1-3 and 4 was not in series with the resistor. You might do a search in the Wrangler board or the Liberty board...I was pretty sure someone had the answer to what you were looking for.

I had the same problem, #1,2. I found a web sit that has online service manuals ($25USD). The resistor is located behind the glove box. Open up the glove box, then on each side, you should see the clips that stop the glove box from opening up all the way. Squeeze them towards each other and the glove box opens up. (empty glove box 1st). the resistor is towards the right. There was a red locking clip on the bottom, getting this to come out was the biggest problem, it does NOT come off, just out. then remove the cable connections, then two bolts (5/16). It took me about 30 minutes total. Mopar part number on the bag 1-05139719AA. Cost was $23.63 CND with tax.

Thanks for the help. I was able to replace this resistor in aprox 15 min. As you said the toughest part of the whole fix is the red locking clip. I broke mine in the process of removing the old resistor. Once broken, I removed the resistor easily and used electrical tape to tape the connector to the resistor. Oh well, heater now works perfect. Thanks again

Im gonna go with a lose connector, happened to my buddies liberty and it was almost the same problem, had no high beam turnsignals and rear running lights however had brakes, after he tried to fix it himself and couldnt figure out how to replace the bulb i came over and figured it out. What had happend is the red safty clip had either broke or fallen out, and the connector came loose just enough to not make connection.

I've had the speedometer stop working twice in my 2003 Liberty. Both times dealer fixed it under warranty. Now it's out of warranty. Do I have a hope of getting them to fix it again on their dime? Is this a persistent problem with Libertys? I'm also having trouble with the blower. Now it only works at high speed. Are the two related?

Just had the same problem with my 2003 liberty. Dealer fixed under warranty. The resistor needed replacement. Nothing is wrong with the fan switch. I believe the resistor is located behind the glove box. Empty out glove box, push in clips on each side, the box will swing down, giving access to the lower portion of the dash, wires, etc.

OK the dealer fixed the speed sensor for the third time on his dime claiming that now all 3 speed sensors have been changed. Are there 3 speed sensors or will there suddenly be 4 speed sensors when it is fixed the fourth time?

Hey Guys (and Ladies), Here's a quick question - the headlights on my 06 Liberty stay on after I leave the vehicle for 60 seconds. I would rather they go off more quickly than that, say 30 seconds. I know other features are programmable, as I turned off that annoying horn chirp when locking the doors. Anyone know how to reprogram the headlights on interval? Any help would be appreciated.Thanks,Dave

I have a 2002 Liberty - one of the first off the line. This weekend, I think I blew a fuse for the interior electrical. The radio/clock, lights, locks, and alarm do not work. I was driving when it happened, and it scared the heck out of me. Has this happened to anyone else? Thanks.

Have you gotten help with this? My sister's 2002 Liberty's lights momentarily flash off when she is driving with the lights on. It is instantaneous, but very dangerous and disturbing. We wondered if the problem was similar. The dealership has been unable to recreate the situation.

We just had our 2004 Jeep Liberty in to get the power steering pump and P/S hih pressue line replaced; when we got it back from dealer, the horn wasn't working? Any chance it was inadvertantly disconnected or forgotten when making repairs?

I bought my '02 Liberty Limited several months ago and have always been confused about the shifting console... Is there supposed to be a light in it, you know, so when its dark I can actually see the "R,N,D,1,2"? It has never lit up and my husband and I just think that seems unusual. Anyone? :confuse:
